Leibster Blog Award

Liebster Blog Award...

I just received this award from Barb

and had no idea what it meant.

Then I read further....

Well, so with that...

'Liebster' in German means 'dearest',

The idea of the award is to draw attention to blogs with less than 200 followers and pass the award on to 5 other bloggers all in the spirit of fostering new connections.

The rules for the award are :  

1. Show your appreciation to the person who gave it to by thanking them and linking back to their blog.

2. Post the award to your blog.

3. Give the award to 5 bloggers (with less than 200 followers) that you appreciate and follow.

4. Leave a comment to the 5 bloggers to let them know you have chosen them for the award.

So I have some 'thank you's to give...

Thank you for giving me this award

Speedy Fox and Friends #100 - Shades of Pink

Welcome to Speedy Fox and Friends challenge,

WOW 100 challenges can you believe it? How exciting. Today with Speedy Fox now that it is officially Spring we want to challenge you to make a card using shades of Pink.  I am not a pink person (Green is my favorite color) but there are so many shades of Pink to use.

For my card I used the SCS sketch challenge from this week to make my card. I am using "Dogwood Blossoms" for my card and I colored it with my Copic Markers. I hope you enjoyed my card.

Whew! What a week jam packed with great creations. Today is our final day of the hop and we are showcasing our last stamp set for the month (my favorite) called "Mothers Magnolias". My favorite flower is Magnolias and when I saw this stamp set I was so excited I could not wait to make something with it. 

                                           

For my card today it is just another simple card. I made it using the sketch challenge from this weeks SCS challenge. I used Wisteria Wonder, River Rock and white card stock for my card. I colored my image with Copic Makers. I finished off my card with ribbon and pearls and added some glitter to spice it up a bit.

On the inside I mounted white card stock and added my image and sentiment with Lavender Lace ink. I hope you enjoyed my card. Thanks for stopping and commenting, I hope to see you again soon.  Don't forget to stop back by tomorrow to see who won one of these great stamp sets. If you didn't win on the blog hop jump on over to SpeedyTV and join the Friends of SpeedyTV for a chance to win a fabulous stamp set.

Thanks
